To copy just the folder structure between two locations without any files, for example from folder c:\source to folder d:\target\, create a ViceVersa profile with : Source: c:\source Target: c:\target Include Subfolders: Yes File Filter: Exclude * (this filter will exclude all files) Subfolder Filter: Include ** (this filter will force inclusion of all subfolders) Execution Method: Replication (Update Target)
Note that by default ViceVersa PRO automatically excludes all subfolders that contain
only excluded files. For example, if a subfolder contains 5
documents, which have file extension .doc, and the profile settings exclude all
files with extension .doc , then ViceVersa PRO will exclude the subfolder X
too, automatically. But this default behavior can be overridden by adding an
include subfolder "**" as the first subfolder
filter (double *, without surrounding ") as shown above. With this special filter, subfolders
containing only excluded files will not be excluded and the replication will be able to just copy the folder structure without the files inside.
